As I've previously stated, we're getting ever closer to the Season Two premiere of Game of Thrones and if the above trailer is any indication, it looks like Season Two will be taking all the aspects of the first season that we loved to the next level. I've read the novels so I have a good idea where Season Two takes us, and as long as HBO stays the course, I can assure you that Season Two will meet your wildest expectations.
